ComSuper selects Juniper Networks's network solutions

Juniper Networks has announced that the Australian Government's superannuation administrator, ComSuper is implementing a completely new network infrastructure based on Juniper Networks EX Series Ethernet Switches and Juniper Networks Unified Access Control solution.

The network infrastructure upgrade is the first stage in an IT rollout for ComSuper that includes a new PABX and telecommunications system, storage area network and range of desktop solutions.

As part of the core and edge network infrastructure upgrade, ComSuper will deploy Juniper Networks EX Series Ethernet Switches and Juniper Networks Unified Access Control, which will provide control, visibility and monitoring of network access while guarding mission-critical applications and sensitive data.

Each of the EX4200 Ethernet switches deployed at ComSuper deliver wire-speed performance on all ports. By leveraging Juniper's virtual chassis technology, up to 10 EX4200 switches can be interconnected and managed as a single, logical device, delivering the scalability and manageability of traditional chassis-based systems in a cost effective, compact platform.

David Hunter, executive manager of ITSG Infrastructure at ComSuper, said: "Millions of dollars each week are administered by ComSuper, so it is paramount our network is stable, scalable and highly resilient. Juniper's network solutions met all of our requirements.

"The tight integration of Juniper's EX Series switches with the Unified Access Control solution, along with the JUNOS single network operating system, provides us with a reliable, scalable and highly resilient core allowing for easy administration. This ultimately increases our business agility and contributes to our bottom line."
